The transformation of Irvington's waterfront is one of Scenic Hudson's most dramatic success stories. This former industrial site is now a peaceful riverfront oasis just 12 miles north of New York City. At this site, 12-acres of contaminated soil and blacktop along the Hudson River have been transformed into a public park with views of the Manhattan skyline, Palisades and Tappan Zee Bridge.

The Scenic Hudson Land Trust saved the land from proposed residential development. The restoration and creation of the park was achieved through a partnership involving our land trust, the Village of Irvington and New York State. Today, the park is managed by the Village of Irvington Parks and Recreation Department.
